Hi Chris,
The black is being heavily clipped it seems. Any chance of getting to play with result straight out of DSS? One thing I've learnt is to never try and do any further processing in DSS, it's too cumbersome to get far. As soon as DSS has done its magic I save the resulting image and reopen it in PhotoShop.
Cheers,
Cam
P.S. One way to keep the detail in the middle down (since you're using PhotoShop) is to duplicate the image into another layer. Process one like you've done here to keep the bright details and another to keep the faint details, merge them as you see fit. You can do most of this just with the Curves too, but not everything.
